PP isn't worth his own thread. If we keep him, don't pay him too much. If he leaves? Big deal. Just another mid-level player. I do like the idea of putting springs back at the SS position though.
Since you like the idea of putting our #1 CB at the SS position. Who do you propose fills the role of our #1 CB when we are already very limited at corner?
With the status of our CB position already shaky and the uncertainty with the health of Carlos, we will certainly have to address this need in the draft. I like the progress Reed made last year and think he will be just fine at SS, if anything you bring in a later round draft or FA to compete and push Reed/depth move.

^^Chris long said he doesnt care where he's drafted.(He said he doesnt care if he goes 1sr or 31st) He just wants to focus on his future.
This kid is for real.
Hah, yeah Brady Quinn probably said the same thing... but I have a feeling he wants to make that top 5 draft pick money more than anything

Yeah, I agree. I don't know where all this "let's just move our CBs to SS" talk came from.. it's not like were exactly stocked in that position as it is.

Any ideas if Springs would move to Safety? I know they were looking to move him to that position last year.

With Rogers out for at least half the year it really doesn't make much sense at this point to move Springs to safety.

I was only saying that would have made since if we would have went after Hall.
We could have moved Springs to SS, to swap with Doughty and springs could also be a interchangable CB/nickel, and then we would also draft a CB and would have Quite a nice secondary.

We woulda had Springs/Doughty as SS, Landry at FS with Fox backing him up. Hall as our #1cb and smoot/rogers would share that #2 spot while rogers is worked back into the line up.Springs coulda came in at nicke as well. Leigh Torrence/Eubanks as depth. (Plus we don't know what small veteren CB signings if any.

I see us playing Springs as cb1,Smoot at cb2 .. Rogers will be worked back into the line-up most likely like Springs was after coming off a major injury. I'm sure we will draft a CB and we have Torrence and Eubanks as depth.
By the time Rogers is completely healthy, he will be back in the #2 role, Springs will be #1, Smoot/Rookie will play cb3/nickle,Torrence and Eubanks will provide quality depth and they know the system and scheme.
We have Laron Landry at FS with Reed Doughty at SS. Hopefully Vernon Fox will come back and be depth if needed behind LaRon. I believe the coaches will bring in competition into camp to make Doughty work harder, and see if he wants that starting job. So I have no idea who we will bringing in as far as depth wise/competition at the SS spot.

Prioleau is a solid third safety for us. He is a solid, veteran presence and he is good in coverage and also will come up and stop the run. Obviously you don't want to overpay for a guy like Prioleau but if we can get him for slightly above the veteran minimum I'd support the move.

I'm wondering if anybody knows if Redskins re trying to resign Pierson or not? I mean, I think he should be one of vets we should try to resign.. He may not have a big role but his role is important - he's versatile, he takes over any position when necessary..
I figure maybe someone should at least attempt to answer your question
